Is there already a way to preferably get observations from new users? I’m thinking this could be a good way to have new users get IDs quickly, so they see the usefulness of the site, and stay.

Welcome to the forum, @portioid!

I converted this to a post in the general category as it’s more of a question rather than a feature request. I believe the answer to your question might be found here: [https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/ways-to-help-out-on-inat-wiki/1983/12](https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/ways-to-help-out-on-inat-wiki/1983/12)

Or here: [https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/how-to-use-inaturalists-search-urls-wiki/63](https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/how-to-use-inaturalists-search-urls-wiki/63)

I’m sure the community can chime in.

@portioid the Identify page has an account creation filter. You can filter by accounts created in the past week, or accounts created more than a week ago:

If you’re using the “In the past week” filter, I recommend having a tab open to [https://www.inaturalist.org/pages/responses](https://www.inaturalist.org/pages/responses)
